Family Fun Night

Tonight was our first time for this event at our school. Eric teamed up with his Dad to work their way through a 12 task obstacle course. He claimed "Daddy is faster than me", but after seeing what they had to do, I did not feel slighted and was probably protected from embarassment in some of the tasks put before them. Jesse and I were the cheerleaders although I would hardly call crying any acceptable form of cheer and that was what Jess decided to do the ENTIRE time they were in the course "wanting Daddy". His sadness didn't effect their performance as they whipped through the course with lightening speed and success. Eric earned his medal and enjoyed the process of attaing it too. Both kids were "awarded" cookies (or "tookies" as Jess fondly terms them) which made it all better - along with returning to his father's arms. We snuck out a bit early as there were MANY children and adults of all ages there for this evening.
